The Five 21st Century Skills

Self Knowledge

Demonstrates growth and competence in:
goal setting, planning, assuming responsibility, motivation/self direction, reflection, self assessment, multiple intelligences, emotional intelligence, finding your passion
Goal:
I wish to improve in my self knowledge. I do not have any evidence of ability in this category, which I must improve upon. I want to gain evidence in this section that I have self knowledge skills.


Technology Tools

Demonstrates growth and competence in:
media (text, audio, and video production tools), productivity tools (presentation, statistical, database),
communication tools, email, chat, discussions, telephone, texting, networking tools, web, integration of platforms and applications

This was my PowerPoint presentation for my unit three history project. This shows good presentation skills. I did not include many words on the PowerPoint, which required me to efficiently use my notecards. In this PowerPoint, I also attempted to insert humor and wit, which I believe is important in a presentation. Presentation skills are very important to have, and this PowerPoint expresses my ability.


Communication Process

Demonstrates growth and competence in:
public presentation of self, interpersonal relationships (peers, family, teachers, mentors), public speaking

This is my rubric for my unit three history project about John Adams. I got a 100% on the project. This required good public speaking skills. This rubric included delivery, eye contact, and material. I used my notecards well, and I made good eye contact with my audience. Also, evidently, my material was good. I worked very hard on this project, and it paid off.


Collaboration and Community

Demonstrates growth and competence in:
workplace expectations/skills/abilities, workplace resources, collaboration and teamwork, decision making, problem solving, creativity, navigating the community,
civic engagement (leadership, social skill, politeness, task skill, helpfulness, diversity, clarity, success of outcomes)
Group Prezi
This was a Prezi presentation that I made in a group several months ago. The focus question was to decide whether America today follows the beliefs of Alexander Hamilton, or Thomas Jefferson. There were four of us working on this project together, and I was chosen as the leader of the group. My job was difficult because at times, my group would not work. It was my job to keep them on task. I assigned the work that had to be done each day in order to finnish the project on time, and evidently, I succeeded.


Research and Assessment Tools

Demonstrates growth and competence in:
library skills and information literacy, search strategies, evaluating sources, mathematical reasoning, scientific method, data presentation and interpretation, rubrics, assessment, reflection

This is a research paper that I wrote this year in language arts. We were directed to research a topic regarding African American history in a given time period. My assigned time period was 2010-present. I chose to research Barack Obama. This shows my research skills because I began with limited knowledge on a subject, and I finished with this final product.
